Echoes of the Sun

Andean Mythology Then and Now

Join us for a fascinating presentation on Andean mythology. Discover how Andean gods ruled the skies, mountains and lakes held sacred power, and stories shaped civilizations.

In the first half, we’ll explore the rich mythological tapestry of the Inca world, from Viracocha the creator to Pachamama, the Earth Mother.

In the second half, we’ll explore how Andean myths live on today—blending with Christian traditions to shape modern rituals, festivals, and beliefs across the Andes.

During the break, enjoy traditional refreshments including hot drinks, mince pies, salteñas, and humintas. A selection of Bolivian arts and crafts will also be on display and available for purchase.
